No one feels horny at that time of the morning.

It’s rare that I say this, but you’re wrong, Angry. You’ve slept alone for too long, it seems.

I think you would be interested in the digital radio station that plays nothing but birdsong, Mr Angry – I quite regularly listen for a few minutes before I go to bed when there’s shit all else on Radio 4. It’s perfectly soothing.

I would be happy to put up with the little f***ers twittering outside the window if they would stop shitting on my car every morning – and again at work after eating too many blueberrys apparently.
I got me a psychotic Viszla in the hopes I can winnow there numbers a bit as its an excellent bird dog – at the mo though it seems to have fixated on flys and Mosquitos, and headbutting me in the face. Think I could set it on Celine -Im in the right country afterall.

Owls are the worst for this. They’re all “Ooh ooh, twit twoo, ooh” up in their trees, like “I’m going to stay up all night and sleep all day, not like you-twit twoo”

Like blooody hell, no need to brag.

If only one could shoot BB pellets at Celine Dion in the same way one can shoot them at winged warblers…

Those same birds not only wake me up but also crap all over my car. Then the cats get pissed off because they cant reach the birds – so they spray my bumper. And, if I am really unlucky, the very young teenage mummy at the end of my close gives a random squaddie a blow-job (unfortunately she also ’sleeps’ with the window open).

Keef – I hate cats, but for that little moggy I will make an exception. Fantastic work.

Lin – 3:30? That’s just vindictive.

Misty – And I always thought most home invasions took place between 1 and 3am.

My least favourite thing to hear at 5.30am is ‘gis a blow job darling’. I’ll take bird song anyday!

You obviously sleep like the dead. I get squawked from my bliss-like sleep at 3.30am. Drives the dog insane too, he can’t wait to get out there and have a very verbal word or two.

We have a large ash tree in our front lawn so in summer we’re quite often woken by the sound of birdsong outside, it doesn’t bother me as much as it obviously bothers you but then I enjoyed Titanic. Our neighbours provide a home for (own is not really a suitable word) a large black and white and totally psychotic tom cat who leaves a trail of death wherever he goes. Our dog has at least thirty lbs on him but has learned the hard way not to pick any fights with next doors cat.
Every one in a while the sound of birds singing is interrupted by the rustling of leaves and a strangled squawk as Mother Nature shows her less sentimental side.
